6. : When a leather bound edition of a desired book simply doesn’t exist, we will create it. Custom bindings do take some time as it’s a true craft, and they can be expensive, but the result is usually one-of-a-kind. We have created leather bound editions of classics such as The Catcher in the Rye, bound designer portfolio books, histories of The Beatles, a series of economics classics and various other books. Some projects involve rebinding books that have sentimental value or are rare and would benefit from a beautiful binding for resale. Feel free to contact us about your project, anything is possible with custom leather bindings.

5. : makes nice luxurious leather books that are well designed and tend to be literary classics and other important books (although some we must admit are trendy bestsellers and not destined to be classics). We love their sets of William Faulkner, John Steinbeck, F. Scott Fitzgerald and others. Some other companies make modern leather books including Franklin Library, Gryphon Editions, and others. When we build collections of modern leather books, we do so for clients who like the bright colors, the contemporary style, and who want books in leather that are simply not available in leather any other way (at least not in a timely and economical manner). A collection of these books by the foot yields all English language books and mostly classics, so that can be a good way to go. Or we can build a custom curated collection by author, subject, etc. We also help clients source many of these books as special gifts as a leather bound edition of a favorite work is always more appreciated than a standard hardcover.
